It’s time for some Drupal design, Boston-style. Hundreds of designers, developers and site builders will converge on MIT’s Stata Center this weekend, June 22 and 23, for Design4Drupal Camp, Boston. This annual event, now in its fourth year, is a chance for Greater Boston’s Drupal community to network, share ideas and help power the momentum of this ever-evolving, popular open-source platform.
Oomph will be represented at Design4Drupal Camp by Rob Aubin and Nick Blanchard who are both looking forward to the experience.
“What makes it special is that the tracks aren’t laid out to be too developer-heavy,” says Rob. “There’s a real focus at Design4Drupal on UX and front-end strategy, which is a lot more palatable for front-end developers, UX specialists and those new to the platform.”
Education never stops for those who are passionate about what they do, and this is a guiding philosophy for the Oomph team. We like to think of it as Oomph University, and we’re fortunate to have so many valuable events like Design4Drupal Camp happening all the time, right here in Boston–an influential digital design and development community and ideal classroom.
While Nick says he is interested in learning more about how industry leaders incorporate UI and UX design into the Drupal platform, Rob expects to pick up new tips and ideas for the creative team at Design4Drupal, especially regarding the interactive side of creating content. Look for more on their D4D experience this weekend as they tweet live from the event @oomphinc and #D4DBoston. Next week, Rob will share his D4D #OomphU insight with you here on the blog.
